The Best Twin-Screw Design for Powder Coating Baker Perkins manufactures a comprehensive range of twin-screw extruders precisely engineered for powder coating applications, from small batch to continuous high-output production. Careful consideration of screw profiles, high free volume geometry and unique, patented innovations such as the MAX³ feed system enable our extruders to process the greatest quantity of product for the minimum of power and cost. They are suitable for all types of powder coating formulations, including epoxy, hybrids, polyester, acrylics and fines recycling. Baker...

Process A complete process line comprises weighing and feeding the mix before the extruder, and cooling, flaking and grinding following the extruder. Baker Perkins partner with a number of companies who can supply all equipment required to put together a full process line. Each of our partner companies specialises in their particular technology, so customers are assured of consistent performance throughout the process. Raw materials are converted into a homogeneous mix Weighing & Feeding A range of feed options to suit the process or materials, including: • Top-feeding gravimetric and...

MAX³ feed system increases throughput The MAX³ feed system successfully addresses the long-standing, industry-wide issue of restricted output and torque surges caused by material building up in the extruder feed port – when particles hit the intake screws and ‘bounce’ back into the infeed area rather than flowing into the machine. Baker Perkins’ patented system uses unique feed port and screw designs to improve the flow of material into the extruder barrel and the air out of it. A major benefit is that lightweight, low density materials and fines are handled much more efficiently, eliminating...

Power & torque specifically tuned for powder coating production Unlike multi-purpose extruders, Baker Perkins’ motors are specifically selected for powder coating applications. By specifying the precise power and torque for this application, output can be maximised without wasting energy. The extruder’s efficiency and lifespan is increased by reducing wear, and long-term maintenance costs are cut. The water cooled motor is also quieter, cooler and easier to clean than the air cooled alternative. Gearbox condition monitoring system reduces downtime A condition monitoring system allows owners to...

Range Laboratory and Small Batch Equipment High Output Continuous Production The MPX19 is a benchtop twin-screw extruder ideal for laboratory and development work. A comprehensive range of twin-screw extruders for applications from small batches (100kg/hr) up to high-output (2,900kg/hr) continuous production. The MPX19 features Baker Perkins’ clamshell barrel, so production can be stopped at any time with immediate access to view the state of material being processed. It delivers repeatable results, and enables full, reliable scale-up to production outputs on Baker Perkins’ range of larger...
